THE LUST

My sister's friend really likes me, and I really like her, but she has a series of extra passages in her sinuses that make her eat, drink, sleep, and live really loud. It sounds like she's always choking or semi-vomitting. She's really hot...even kind of looks like Amanda Peet a bit...but this is destroying my ability to be with her. My sister says that I shouldn't care....what should I do? Deal with what my friends have dubbed the "Roto-Rooter" head, or throw that aside and prepare for the real love?
Best,
Robert

Bobby, nasal problems are always tough to deal with. Expecially if it's a girl you are sweet on. I used to know this dude who had this sinus problem where he couldn't use his nose at all. It didn't sound as bad as you described, but he had to breath through his mouth all the time, so eating with him was gross. He also couldn't smell anything, and taste was ruined too. We'd put old hamburgers in his car and let it rot under the seat for weeks. He'd drive around blasting his Faith Hill or Tim McGraw, until he would be giving someone a ride and they'd gag when they'd open the door. One time we stuffed some old fish heads under his bed. He won't return my calls anymore. |

Robert, this question is close to my heart. As any of the guys will be quick to tell you, I have a rather obnoxious farting problem that can be quite odorous. It's plagued my friendships and my relationships for years to the point where I've been fired from part-time jobs as a florist and perfume salesman because of it. I really think it's unfair for people to be judged this way, so I'd encourage you to look past this imperfection and focus on what's important...like does she really look like Amanda Peet? Dude...Amanda Peet! Aces! |

Well, the only related experience that I have to this is that I used to have a girlfriend that chewed with her mouth open. Every time that we ate it really grossed me out. I would try looking away but I could still hear the constant smacking. It got to the point where I would avoid eating with her. The sad part about the whole thing was that everything else in our relationship was great. With all this said I'm not exactly sure what my advice is but ... Amanda Peet is pretty hot ... so I might give it a try. |

Man...this is a good question.
I personally would ralf my head off if I was having a steak sandwich and I heard my girlfriend's inner nasal activity all of the time. I would also ralf my head off if I was sleeping, and was constantly interupted by my girlfriend's sinuses having conversations and making noises. I think I would ralf my head off at any given time if I heard that, so....if you decide to hook up with her, do not go to South Keys Cinemas, or any other place where I could be...because I will ralf my head off. Thanks! |
